esugi Posted June 14, 2007 Posted June 14, 2007 Trip: Stuart Range - NE Couloir - Argonaut Date: 6/11/2007 Trip Report: We had plans of doing Coleman Headwall but weather Sunday looked iffy so we opted for our back-up plan. Nice moderate climb of Argonaut via NE Couloir, East of the Pass. I know there's couple other TR's so all this post will do is show current conditions of the route for anyone interested in doing this route in next couple weeks or so. First narrow constriction. Easy mixed climbing involved. Chris waiting for my slow ass. Showing current condition inside the couloir. 4th class scrambling to the summit. Snow free. On the summit in 7 hours from TH. We soloed the couloir and went to the notch, where we climbed up the 5.6 dihedral. Descended down the East Gulley just like "SmilingWhiteKnuckles" on his previous TR. Overall, a fun outing. Another warm spell and this route may go out of shape though... Quote
cfire Posted June 14, 2007 Posted June 14, 2007 Nice route, nice remote location for the Enchantments and fun partner...thanks Eiji! The pics are great. Next time maybe I'll remember the camera...well, maybe. Quote
esugi Posted June 14, 2007 Author Posted June 14, 2007 Yup, it was fun. My knee feels lot better now! Thanks for letting me lead the dihedral. We'll climb again soon. Still eyeing Baker NR or Coleman. Have fun at your sons baseball! Quote
spotly Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 Looks like you had a nice day for it. What's the more popular route and approach later in the year? Quote
